    My 1st Toyota Truck
    New 1984 4x2 Manual 5 spd Extra cab short box sold at 160,000 miles

    My 2nd Toyota Truck
    New 1988 Manual 5 spd 4x2 Extra cab Long box (AK Trusty Rusty) 465,000 miles. Lots of speeding tickets but worth every dime, consistent 110 mph.
    Never had a problem, never in a car accident, I designed and fabricated a deer slayer for the front end which was used once, I hit a deer head on and everything in the truck hit the ceiling and a good thing the seat belts work. A upper friend that I worked with was traveling behind me and could not believe I did not stop and that I kept driving and that their was no damage other than the exhaust system had to be replaced.
    When I felt it was time for that last ride she could still do that 110 mph trick and was sadly donated to Rawhide Boys Ranch.

    My 3rd Toyota Truck
    New 2000 Tacoma 4x2 Manual 5 spd Extra cab short box Condemned for frame did not pass inspection and was in the Toyota buyback program in 2012 January (12years old 160,000) That was another very sad day for me.


    This is my 4th Toyota Truck
    Purchased a New 2012 Tacoma Dbl Cab 4x4 and so far I love it, I am currently looking for steel wheels for the winter because I like to keep my alloy wheels nice for summer and help me keep on track for tire rotation.

    Thanks.. Dig yours as well. I might be going with bronze wheels in the future so im going to wait on painting the brakes. You camp much with your rig? Looks good with the topper!
